Philadelphia Family | Newborn | Birth Photography & Films
Life isnβt always pretty, but itβs often beautiful
You prioritize making memories with your kids over things. You prefer to roll in the grass, jump on the furniture, snuggle up for story time, and silly game nights. Your home emanates love and you donβt sweat marks on the walls, fingerprinted windows, or mismatched outfits. Your family is full of goofy personalities and you want your photos to reflect that. You want to freeze time, and thatβs the power of a photograph.
If the photo roll on your phone is filled with candid shots of your kids but youβre not in any of them, we should talk.
βHiring Rachel to take family photos was like having a dear friend over.
She made us feel really comfortable and we could just be ourselves - which is what we wanted out of the photos in the first place. We spent the morning doing our usual boring family things but the photos Rachel really showed the joy and love that fills our house. We are so grateful to have a record of all that.β

HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER
families
It's an easy, laid-back day. I'll come to your home or your favorite outdoor location, and we'll just hang out together. No special outfits, no crazy activities, no posing required. No pressure to sit still or say cheese. Just your family as you are, making memories you can FEEL.
newborn
Your session is tailored just for you. Are you morning or afternoon people? Worried that your home is a little too lived in? That your older kids wonβt βbehaveβ or the baby will be cranky? Just relax and love on your little ones, let me worry about the rest.
birth
No matter how your birth story unfolds, you deserve to have it told. Home birth, birth center, hospital, c-section. With midwives or doctors, or all of the above. Stay present and focus on the moments while I document the memories for you with photography and films.
βRachel is absolutely amazing to work with!
She is so much fun and has a special way of making you comfortable taking photos from the minute you meet her. Thank you Rachel for capturing our family so beautifully! Rachel will be our go-to for family photos in the future.β

My approach is a combination of lifestyle and documentary, which means you and your family get to relax and have fun together while I capture beautiful images of the little moments that make your family special.
EVERY FAMILY HAS THEIR OWN STORY. I WOULD LOVE TO HELP YOU TELL YOURS.
